The boy must not go. [isi_0001_5]
Annotator archna
(o / obligate-01
:ARG1 (b / boy)
:ARG2 (g / go-02
:polarity -
:ARG0 b))
Annotator consensus
(o / obligate-01
:ARG2 (g / go-02
:polarity -
:ARG0 (b / boy)))
QUESTION: Why do we not have an ARG1 for "obligate" - is it because we assume that we don't have 2 clauses here?

The man died between the house and the river. [isi_0001_21]
Annotator archna
(d / die-01
:ARG1 (m / man)
:location (b / between
:op1 (h / house)
:op2 (r / river)))
Annotator consensus
(d / die-01
:ARG1 (m / man)
:location (b / between
:op1 (h / house)
:op1 (r / river)))
QUESTION: Is there a principled way to determine if we will get the same relation op1 or different op1, op2 etc? In the following we get two different role names.

:ARG2-of (s / scheme-01)))

(p / participate-01

QUESTION: Why is "scheme" ARG1 of "participate"?

According to government sources, the killing happened yesterday. [isi_0001_23]
Annotator archna TOP: report-01
(r / report-01
:ARG0 (s / source

:ARG0 (s2 / source
:mod (g / government-organization
:ARG0-of (g2 / govern-01)))
:ARG1 (k / kill-01
:time (y / yesterday)))
QUESTION: Why do we have ARG0-of? Is that necessary?

The boy came and left. [isi_0001_24]
Annotator archna
(a / and
:op1 (c / come-01
:ARG0 (b / boy))
:op2 (l / leave-01
:ARG0 b))
Annotator consensus
(a / and
:op1 (c / come-01
:ARG1 (b / boy))
:op2 (l / leave-01
:ARG0 b))
QUESTION: Why is "boy" Arg1 instead of Arg0 for the predicate "come"? And do we differentiate between the unaccusative and unergative intransitive verbs for the PB labels here?

The boy is a hard worker. [isi_0001_25]
Annotator archna TOP: work-01
(w / work-01
:ARG0 (b / boy)
:manner (h / hard))
Annotator consensus TOP: person
(p / person
:domain (b / boy)
:ARG0-of (w / work-01
:manner (h / hard)))
QUESTION/COMMENT: I thought we would use "top person" when we want to express a noun phrase like "a hard worker (boy)" instead of a clause. If we have two ways to express this semantic content, we need to be consistent in whether we use one form or the other, I think we choose that depending on what is being focussed. If it is a nominal expression "a hard worker (boy)", the person is being focussed and the second annotation above seems better; but if it is clausal, the fact that the boy is a hard worker is focussed, so we use the first annotation above.

the earlier plan
(p / plan
:time (e / early
:degree (m / more)))
QUESTION: This question is not that important but why do we not mark it as "plan-01"? Is it because it was not a verb but a noun?

several hundred boys [isi_0001_32]
Annotator archna
(b / boy
:quant (h / hundred
:mod (s / several)))
Annotator consensus
(b / boy
:quant (s / several
:op1 100))
QUESTION: I'm not sure about this difference. I looked at the guidelines, I see we do it this (consensus) way, but I am just curious why we do it this way.

:op1 10)
:unit (m / mile))
Annotator consensus TOP: about
(a / about
:op1 (d / distance-quantity
:quant 10
:unit (m / mile)))
QUESTION: What is the difference between "about 10 miles" and "more than 4000 boys"/ "between 4000 and 5000 boys"? All are variations of quantities.
